British Design | Performance Loudspeakers | Experts Since 1972
The Monitor Audio Group Experience Centre is anchored by a series of notable Essex partnerships; this collective effort has forged a space that stands as the pinnacle of British excellence and workmanship.
Our vision for this landmark facility was spearheaded by The Cinema Company, a highly regarded Wickford-based installation specialist that truly understands the marriage of aesthetics and acoustics. To provide a complete turnkey service for our new Experience Centre, founder James Brown and his elite CEDIA-certified team utilised their 15 years of expertise in smart home technology, lighting, and custom carpentry.
The team were outstandingly agile and responsive to our evolving needs without ever sacrificing quality, ensuring every space provides visitors with an enhanced listening experience.
We are honoured to work with a partner whose unwavering dedication to their craft matches our own pursuit of perfection.
To unify our vision, we required a central system capable of unifying and orchestrating the audio, video and lighting in one intuitive platform. We chose the Control 4 One Smart Hub. By removing the complexity of managing multiple applications, Control 4 allows our visitors to focus entirely on their entertainment oasis.
This system has been personalised to our specific needs, transforming our Experience Centre into a cinematic sanctuary where high-performance components are elevated by effortlessly integrated lighting.
To ensure our state-of-the-art cinema room offered a truly premium environment, we collaborated with Infinity Seating, based in Temple Farm.
Working closely with their team, we customised the seating with carefully selected fabrics and finishes to complement the room’s colour scheme, optimised seat sizing to maximise the space, and incorporated bespoke branding to elevate the overall deluxe aesthetic.
Robert Barford, Monitor Audio Group CEO
We are proud to work alongside QMotion Blinds, whose precision blackout solutions set the stage for total immersion; Chord Company, for providing lasting sound through their industry-leading cabling; and Control4, whose advanced systems unify our technologies into one cohesive environment.
Together, they have created a space designed for effortless enjoyment.
As an internationally renowned British brand that has been hand-building award-winning cabling in Wiltshire since 1985, Chord Company shares our "no compromise" approach to high-fidelity performance.
Having collaborated closely for many years across various UK and global events, we knew that only Chord Company could provide the technical infrastructure required to connect and power our Experience Centre.
Their expertise in providing lasting sound and seamless integration ensures that every piece of audio is delivered with transparency, allowing for effortless enjoyment throughout the whole centre and each listening space.
Achieving a luxury space extends to every sense, including through our exclusive 'Audition Room' wine, a bespoke wine produced by award-winning New Hall Wine Estate, based in the Crouch Valley.
Bound by heritage and innovation, Monitor Audio Group and New Hall have crafted experiences where tradition meets modernity, each brand representing the pinnacle of British excellence.
Discerning listening deserves equally discerning wines; partnering with New Hall, we have curated a truly exceptional and immersive sensory journey.
To elevate the Forum, our hospitality space, we sought a partner whose obsession with their craft mirrors our own pursuit of acoustic perfection. Just as we spend years refining the architecture of our speakers and electronics, the team at Little Fin have dedicated countless hours creating unique custom blends, including our exclusive ‘Roksan Roast'.
Our partnership is rooted in a shared love for the "performance" of our products; where we have a passion for music, they have a passion for the bean. We are deeply proud to feature a local Essex roastery that proves when passion and process align, the results are truly extraordinary.
